just thought i'd share a few progress pics with you all

recently lowered it on 50 mm Eibach springs and Koni adjustables.
also painted drums and calipers,rebadged the rear and have started on a little install ( not for looks, just to make the boot neat) and still a few little bits to do.

opinions welcome

Before






Now



























Hope you all like

Lookin good mate

Looks nicer after like but the back still looks a bit high? Maybe the photo?

Take off all the badges and get a nice reiger kit or GSI kit anf fully colour code.Then a twin letterbox style(small ish) exhaust.

i got the Alloys off a mate so i dont know what offset the alloys are,. but ther are within the arch and only scrub when i go round corners at sill speeds unless i stiffen the suspension

the car was lowered a week ago, the back is still high and i dont know why, i was thinking maybe the springs need to settle

E-Tec is just something i've decided to use on me car instead of ecotec!
